Default HRE Advice---please!

I have purchased a set of HRE 543 wheels with Michelin pilot sport tires. Wheel sizes are front:19x9.5 and rear 20x10. Tire sizes are 275/30zr19 and 285/30zr20. My 2003 Z06 has been lowered 1".
Will I have any problems with the fit, rubbing etc.? Will I need to have tubes? and if so why?
Thanks guys, just need some informed opinions.
